Greetings
I am running Debian Jessie 8.4 (AMD_64) using the Xfce 4.10 desktop. I installed CB 13.12 because that is the version that is on the Debian repositories. I would prefer to just stay with that but it proving to be rather flaky. It (Codeblocks) occasionally shuts down and I lose my unsaved work. So I thought I would upgrade my CB version to see if that helps.
I see there are two options available to me.
1. Download
codeblocks_16.01_amd64_jessie.tar.xz from SourceForge. I see that has a bunch of .deb files in it which presumably I install manually using
dpkg.
2. according to the instructions at
http://apt.jenslody.de/ I can add
https://apt.jenslody.de/stable jessie main to my sources.list file and use apt to install the CB package (nightly build)
my inclination is to go with option 1 because it is an "official" build as opposed to a nightly build. What would you suggest to a rookie such as myself?
